I want my students to have access to as many books possible. Books they will enjoy and read outside of class. I hope that by being able to provide “just right” books for them, they will be eager about reading. Being in a low income community, it can be difficult for students to have access to books, I don’t want my students to miss out on the opportunity and not be exposed to different types of books. By providing more books and a great classroom it will, expand their knowledge, find their passion for reading, and create equity in education.
